Welcome to Litsy!

I found the story to be sweet and endearing, with a few paranormal/fantasy twists. And while I enjoyed the story, it‘s not one that I‘ll be picking up again in the near future. Nor do I find the need to continue along the series, Since I feel that the ending what is enough.

Part mystery, part romance, part time travel. Pleasant to but not my favorite by her by far. The first part sucks you in, and the second just pulls you through. Leaves with tons of questions.

What better way to have an antique store then to have someone who can 'hear' the story!

1) expensive ebook that was a pan for so many reasons, most of all: yes, people and places smell, and 👏👏 most stupid decisions made by the MC ever
2) atm, Good Omens
3) muesli with yoghurt; in about 30 minutes 😶
4) Central European Time (GMT+1)
5) Grey Dumped (👇)

Whether you fall in love with the cover or read the description, it‘s worth the read!

I can't seem to quit buying books! I bought 5 more from Book Outlet today... and I just received a box from them last week!!! I am hopeless!😝

I don't understand why people are raving about this book. Truly. It's as if we read different versions.

😂😂😂😂😂
At 84%!!! Beforehand the lady herself referred to her 16th/17th century clothing as medieval.

Honestly, I think this book wasn't ready for publication yet when it was published late last year.

Super cute book on antiques and time travel.

Currently reading this library loan to prepare for the next book that I received as an ARC. I don't have as much reading time as I used to so I'm down to the wire before it expires!

Ouch!

Already spotted a grammar mistake and an inconsistency of facts (who told who, what and when), and a tiny thing that bugs me - time travelling to the year 1605 with 17th century folklore information 😕, I'd go for late 16th century information. But, I am a stickler.

Is this a reason for a #HistoricalFictionInaccuracyAnnoyanceSupportGroup meeting?

Also, why oh why can't they edit books properly?

I love this cover! ❤️ What is everyone else reading this weekend? 📚

Another sunny Sunday morning! Ghost is enjoying the sunshine while Shadow is in the shade. 😉 I might have to go back inside for a moment soon, or I'll get sunburn.

Wishing you all a good day.

My daughter, who returned from a 5 day school trip yesterday, still is asleep. She sprained her ankle and I might have to go to hospital with her. Wish the teacher had taken her to see a doctor, but alas they didn't think it was necessary - her lower leg is swollen, for F-s sake. 😤😤😤

Reading the first book in a duology, got book 2 as an ARC.

My 3rd book this year with psychometry (feeling past events by touching an item). Best of the bunch—just the right balance between character development, action sequences, and descriptive passages. Love the heroine and the challenge she tackles. Strong supporting characters, and plenty of suspense. Book two (pub date 10/19) on my NetGalley shelf already. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You have to respect an author who tells the truth about smells of past centuries. Right, @Riveted_Reader_Melissa and @Gezemice ?

When I read a few books at a time, I don‘t usually finish them all on the same day. But when I do, I get to pick three more! The left is my current audiobook—interested in her fiction after reading Forensics. The other two are ARCs I‘m trying to get caught up on. The Exile gets terrible ratings ... oh boy ...

After a week of avoiding this book, and having my mood sour each and every time I thought of spending time with it, it is time for me to bail. I just cannot finish. It is not a bad book, or even a poorly written one, it simply just isn‘t for me.

Really struggling to get through this. It isn‘t bad, in fact it is pretty good... but is quite different from the author‘s other books (that I have read, and loved) that I am finding it hard to really get into. Really hoping it picks up soon. (....I am half way through and already stating to think about what I am going to red next. )

This was a cute story about a ghost, time travel, and a mystery. The story was good but it was not exciting.

Next up on audiobook!

I would give this book 3.5 stars. It was part mystery, part romance, part time travel. I liked it, but felt like it wrapped up too quickly. All in all, a pleasant read and I will most likely read the next in the series.

Hot buttered rum and a book. Great way to spend Sunday afternoon 🥃📙

When you read your ARC two months after the book goes on sale... 🙈

While not my favorite by her, this was a pleasant read. It‘s part mystery, part time travel, romance and historical fiction. Didn‘t love it but liked it well enough.

YMMV. I found this to be a lackluster time travel/ mystery/ romance /putting your life back together after hard times/ story, but the combination of these elements just made the whole thing muddy, not sparkling. I liked the first third, but skimmed all the way to the end just to see how it all cleaned up.

Having a crabby day so I‘m tucked in my corner in a day-long time-out. 🤷🏻‍♀️

3 1/2 🌟 this was a story of a mother and daughter opening their new shop. Xanthe has the ability to feel emotions in objects. She finds a chatelaine that takes her on a journey through time. If you like Outlander books you will enjoy

A beautiful blend of magic and romance. Masterful use of time travel. Read my review at bit.ly/ReadingisMyPassion

A fun time travel read. Great to curl up the couch with these upcoming colder days. Especially if you like Outlander.

3.5/5⭐️
This was between a pick and so-so for me. The start of a series featuring a heroine who can connect to past souls through antique objects found in the present. So there‘s time travel (17th century, Marlborough, England), a ghost (not friendly like Casper), a mystery and a tiny bit of romance. A bit slow (I was easily distracted) until closer to the resolution, but I‘ll probably give the next one a try.
Thanks #NetGalley & #StMartinsPress.

Up next, I know nothing about this one...going in without a clue. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤞🤞🤞

Finally finished book 1 of #24in48. This is vintage historical romance complete with a time traveling twist. It‘s old school England on a spring morning, antique knick knacks lining dusty bookshelves, and a theft that leads us on the hunt to avoid historical justice. Classic Paula Brackston! A generous thank you to #netgalley for this #arc. #littleshopoffoundthings

Netgalley, I could kiss you. 💋

And then the author liked and commented on my Instagram post! 😍 #soexciting #proudbooknerd #thelittleshopoffoundthings

What an amazing book! I absolutely love time travel books and “The Little Shop of Found Things” is a beautiful book, from front to back, literally - the cover is stunning and would have caught my eye in a New York minute, if I saw it on the shelf!

I received this book from a Goodreads giveaway by St. Martin‘s Press and these are my unbiased opinions. See the comments for the rest of my glowing review! 😊

My friend‘s husband passed away this weekend; He was my friend too and a truly beautiful person. He will be missed but memories linger in the stars, the spires, the songs, and all the found things

Ghostie likes to eat books so I have to watch him closely 😂 #ghostiethecat #booksbrewsandbooze #greeneongreens #cataddressbook #thelittleshopoffoundthings #vegetariantimescookbook #paris2015 #paris #parisoutofhand #parisoutofhandawaywardguide
